A healthy heart depends on minerals such as magnesium, potassium, and calcium to function well. Prebiotic inulin from chicory and dandelion roots in Teeccino supports a healthy population of beneficial microflora that have been shown to increase the bioavailability of minerals in your diet, especially calcium and iron. Although a small amount of inulin is found in many common foods like wheat and garlic, our diets are generally deficient in inulin because we no longer eat many tubers which are rich in inulin. Drinking several cups of Teeccino a day can double your daily intake of inulin!
